Main changes:

  
- Lock screen and notification controls when using Chrome on Android.
- Cache certain local browse calls.
- Long press on play/pause button shows sleep timer options.
- Dialog to add/edit favourites.
- For mobile view, show play queue track count and total duration in
  toolbar instead of repeating song info.
- Close mobile volume control 10 seconds after last interaction.
- Add 'More' action to genres.
  

To make the lock-screen controls work, Material makes chrome think its
about to play an audio file (silence.ogg). Material sets it up to play,
and immediately pauses. This play/pause happens every 15 seconds to try
and keep the media session active. (A media session is required for
these controls to show). The media session cannot be created until some
user-action is performed - this is Chrome's way of stopping auto play
audio ads. Therefore, you need to click (or rather touch) somewhere in
the UI, then you should see a speaker icon in the notification bar. This
only works on Android Chrome, as (AFAIK) this is the only browser to
support media sessions.
